I recently noticed that the tower has been upgraded with new frequencies. How do these additional frequencies impact the existing ones, which seem to be working perfectly fine? Were new antennas added to the tower to support these frequencies? I have included a screenshot of the frequencies.

Did you plug the additional frequencies in and confirm their use? Do any of them have a controller on them that you can monitor or use a program like pro96com to get the information?

I’m not really sure I put it in my scanner and it makes a test run to see any difference seems kindly slow, but my other scanner has just a regular frequencies from before I don’t have any problems with it pop up quick, can you hear people talking on it

I am on the other side of the state near the outer banks. I am just trying to see if you are able to hear anything on the site, since you reported one with additional frequencies. Sometimes the team that goes around upgrading VIPER towers makes changes. It isn't until users find out there are changes and confirm them, along with submitting the changes to the database do they get put in the database. So I am trying to see if you can detect any changes. I am around 190 miles away from there. Thanks

The bandplan was added to the system a few weeks ago, those are the frequencies in the top table that you have pictured. Those aren't actually used frequencies, that's used for programming radios to operate on the system. If you're talking about 762.00625 & 851.00625, you can disregard them.
